Album Notes & Community Reviews

LL Cool J's eighth studio album consolidates East Coast hip hop and pop rap at the turn of the century, pairing his commanding, rhythm-forward delivery with sample-based production by DJ Scratch, the Trackmasters, Rockwilder and Havoc. Dense guest verses from DMX, Method Man, Redman, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Prodigy and Ja Rule widen its New York architecture without diluting its direct, bass-heavy momentum.
